​Individual Online Therapy for women in Georgia
I specialize in generational and religious trauma​​.
These issues impact all areas of life and often manifest in struggles related to depression, anxiety, self-worth, sex and sexuality, faith deconstruction, and codependency (feeling responsible for others).
I use warmth and kindness to establish a genuine connection with each client, and I give concrete direction to help clients make positive changes. If we decide to work together, it will be my privilege to work with you. ​

WE MIGHT BE A GOOD FIT IF:
You experience suffering related to a difficult upbringing with an emotionally immature parent or sibling.
You have lingering shame from past experiences in fundamental Christianity, and you either want nothing to do with religion or are seeking to redefine what faith means to you.
​
You are questioning: What’s wrong with me that I’m not happy? Why do I keep coming back to suffering? What is the meaning of life? ​
​
You are kind, smart, and deeply compassionate towards others. But to yourself, it's a different story. You say things to yourself you wouldn’t say to your own worst enemy.
You make a mistake, you play it over and over again in your head . . . sometimes for YEARS. You can't seem to let it just slip off your back the way you see others do.
​
You struggle to prioritize your needs without thinking you’re doing something wrong.
You feel guilty if someone else is sad or angry because you feel responsible for the emotions of those around you.
​
You struggle with boundaries (you may even think they’re unkind). You can't stand the thought of disappointing others.
​
No matter how hard you try, you can’t seem to break the cycle of feeling not enough. It sometimes leaves you feeling really low, and you don't know how to get out of it.​
​​​​
​Two important things to know:
​1. You weren’t meant to feel this way.
You have experienced something(s) that have contributed/that are the roots of you feeling this way. Some of the causes are probably clear to you. Others may not be as obvious although potentially just as harmful. In therapy, you can expect to uncover the root causes and change patterns that continue to cause suffering in your life.
​
2. You deserve to experience lasting healing.
Change is possible. I know it may not feel like it, but it is.
You deserve to experience healing, have healthy relationships you feel safe in,
and to consistently treat yourself with the same kindness you show others.
Change is possible, and I'd love to help.
